UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
与自己合拍的异性，在爱情的路上只有相遇问题，没有追及问题，不光保持同样的步幅、速率和进度条，在同一时间相爱，也在同一时间失去对对方的依恋，最后还能和平解决猫的归属，这是什么神仙故事！我女儿三年级的数学题都比这个难好吗？
我的年度最佳或许已经产生了，坂元裕二这次终于让我心服口服。这部片对于恋爱、婚姻、理想、社会、职场的思辨完全戳中我的点，于是看到这部片的我仿佛就像男女主找到了彼此一样心脏直跳。男主进入职场后的心态变化，男女主对于未来发展道路选择的一番争论，是只有在这个年龄以及人生阶段的我才最能感同身受的了。看完就能理解，为什么说世界上最难的事，是活成一个普通人。
为什么要刚好在今天一个人看，哭的可能比自己分手还吓人。巴丢说的爱情果然很难实现，即使如此相近的两个1也难以保持2。吵架的戏其实比恋爱的戏更好，因为浪漫好写，就像恋爱最初的甜蜜一样简单，但几句话完成那样真实精准的日常争吵就难多了。
我愿称之为“批判豆瓣学”的经典影像呈现：文艺青年要明白，共同的书影音再多，没有发自内心的珍爱、理解和沟通，爱情不过是彩云琉璃，光鲜却脆弱。
表现的越多越苍白，无论他俩怎么样我都不为所动。。。
这是跟性转的自己谈恋爱，两个人电影院里看的那部是阿基考里斯马基的《希望的另一面》。最后结局部分处理得好牛啊！
只能说世界摧毁了文学吧，架纯妹子的阅读谱系真高级文青，普通文青够不来（5.24影院重温，人生啊，还是要按照自己喜好去过，死活才都不悔恨
把爱情拍成单纯的志趣相投还干一两年社畜就轻易把所有爱好舍弃掉的设定让人反感且火大（但短毛的soda狠狠get到了
4.5，“比起一个人的寂寞，两个人的寂寞更难受”，大实话了。两位演员演的很好，前面一直姨母笑，各种爱好对话看着很舒服，两个人身上都有我很像的地方，后面就稍微走下坡路了，看到“过去的我们”这段或许能拍的更好，两个人的处理太重复太弱了一点，但是仍然还是美好的，特别是愉快的分手与偶遇的挥手告别。七夕快乐。
坂元裕二又夺走了我的泪水。现实里会有这样和平的告别吗？还是只有一地琐碎和需要独自走过的漫长愈合期，我不知道，只是觉得这样的缘分一生也许真的只有一次，无论怎么说也不要错过才好。要活在现实里，但也不要被现实击败，要始终记得最初相爱时拼命想要延续下去的那份热烈。
其实无论是前面热恋期讲两人的默契和甜蜜，还是后面的矛盾冲突，都有点极端了，让人无法相信，但写那么细腻的情感，内心的os，还是相当有一手，不回头地挥挥手，全景地图上的小小奇迹，还是被感动到了，一点点。
豆瓣特供……坂元裕二近期的创作好像越来越偷懒，沉溺在自己的某种趣味里面，丧失了《最完美的离婚》时期那种蓬勃的生命力……
恋爱是很容易的事，因为它建立在幻想和期望的基础上，不需要什么成本，当面临生活的考验时，幻想很快破灭，期望会成失望，自然会渐行渐远，若能经受住考验，情人成夫妻，恋爱成恩爱，终究不是同一个东西，所以不只是影片中的恋爱“如花束般”，而是所有的恋爱都是如此。不过片中还是给了年轻人些教训：应该先学着工作和生活，然后再想恋爱的事，不然即使你女朋友是有村架纯，也只能跟她提分手。
婚姻故事前传，也是放在全球各地都成立的人类命运共同体吧。啰嗦却很细腻，就是过于把工作和情感关系的处境极端化了些。
虽然但是，坂元裕二老师还是比较适合写日剧吧。
看完脑海里响起的是gigi《荷花》里的那句“开心的追忆竟比一起真正相处更加着迷”。可能因为我从来不会喜欢和自己爱好过分类似的人，所以觉得相比爱情片，这部更像生活片——男主成为了社会希望他成为的那种人，而女主成为了自己。
坂元裕二依旧高水准
虽然但是，我太讨厌饮料无限畅饮店遇到年轻时候自己那个桥段了。
这部电影讨论的是工作对人的异化，工作啊，真是一件可怕的东西。另外宅男宅女的用户画像还真是单调啊，我也喜欢押井守，我也喜欢黄金神威，看到这个世界上满是跟我一样的人，一点也高兴不起来
消费世代真的好pathetic啊（可是再过几年连前面的剧情都不会有了吧
